Folk clubs in and around Hull

Some friendly advice needed please. I'm going to be staying in Hull between 25th and 29th March (in Beverley I think) and want to try to get to some local folk clubs while I've got the opportunity (and my employer is paying for the petrol). From this forum it would appear there's a lot going on in the area so any pointers and details would be appreciated please. I'm driving so any reasonable distances would be ok.

I know I could have googled for this information but you can't beat a good recommendation !

Thanks in advance..

Chris

Thanks everyone, I'll try to get to some of these. Any other suggestions still welcome, especially singers/guest clubs.

If you want to stray rather further across towards York you would be more than welcome any Wednesday in March (or any month of the year) at the Thompsons Arms, Flaxton 8.30 till whenever - just off the A64 about 10 miles north of York about 40 mins from Beverley

Beverley is certainly the place to stay for folk music rather than Hull.

Shame about missing Tanglefoot, but well done Cottingham for selling out. Still, you've got the brilliant Brian Peters, melodeon, concertina and guitar supremo, on at 'NOT The White Horse Folk Club' at the Foresters Arms in Beverley on the Monday (8.30) - we'd love to see you there Chris.

Perhaps my memory is playing me false but am I right in thinking that there used to be a club at Etton & if so is it still running?
